Re: [Mono-dev] To split or not to split Mono?
Hola, On Thu, 2005-11-03 at 21:10 -0500, Jonathan Pryor wrote: Regardless, a split that removes circular dependencies should be used (hence the implied proposal below to merge mono mcs into mono-core). The breakup I'd suggest is this: Looking at the proposed list, the names mentioned remind me of the names we came up for the RPM packages. I haven't given it much thought, but perhaps we should aim to mirror (and if it's not possible, unite) the names of the post-split mono tarballs with the names of the RPM packages. I think it will be royally confusing for both old-timers and newcomers if the names of the tarballs overlap and do not match up with the names of the packages. The current definition of the RPM packages can be viewed here: http://mono.myrealbox.com/viewcvs/trunk/release/conf/mono-1.1/ximian-build.conf?view=markup Actually, come to think of it, there's another hurdle for packaging when it comes to a split-up: RPM is not particularly good at generating packages from multiple tarballs. Having a 1-to-1 mapping of tarball - package would let up split up the mono-1.1/ximian-build.conf file into smaller files.

The current, ongoing implementation of System.Windows.Forms is built directly on top of libgdiplus, which is our implementation of GDIPLUS.DLL using Cairo (http://www.cairographics.org). We have stopped developing the Wine-based Windows Form implementation for more than 6 months. When completed, you will be able to run WinForms app on top of an X11 server on Mac OS X.

That would bring consistency to mono applications under unixes and GUI consistency is what unixes need. The current implementation of Windows Forms is already the 3rd design of how to implement such an API. In the initial implementation, we tried to abstract the API into an intermediate layer with interfaces, believing that it is possible to have multiple pluggable rendering back-ends as you've suggested above. Very quickly, the complexity of the managing the various layers of abstractions got completely out of control. Other than very simple demos (one form, one button), we were not able to get anything to work. The current implementation, based on libgdiplus/GDIPLUS.DLL, is the simplest design yet.

This time around Red Carpet complains that mono-complete has a failed dependency of mono-preview. The mono-preview package has been deprecated. Try refreshing your RC daemon so that it will download the latest listing of packages from the channel. Revision 2 (mono-foo-1.0.1-1.ximian.x.2.foo.rpm) is the latest revision to the packages. Mono-complete is, I think, a new addition that apparently bundles all the runtime tools. There's another mono-devel package that apparently contains all the devlopment tools. mono-complete and mono-complete-devel are two packages that act as meta- packages, for they depend on every other package in the channel. Presumably, there isn't anything in either of these two packages that isn't contained in the individual packages listed in the channel. So...I can do a successful mono install by selecting everything else except mono-complete and mono-devel? Right? The easiest way to install mono would be to install mono-complete and mono-complete-devel. Those two packages will pull down every other Mono package in the channel. Please note that installing mono-complete will *not* not install gtk-sharp and other libraries. I have received a bug report from one of ours internal users that the mono-ziplib package can be unaccessible from Red Carpet.

[Mono-list] How hard is it to install Mono?
Hello all, We are in the process of re-evaluating the way we package Mono, in doing so, I'd like to get some feedback from you all. When we entered the 1.0 beta cycle, we split the previous setup of two packages (mono, mono-devel) into smaller packages, believing that it will provide greater flexibility for users, who may wish to selectively install only certain parts of the whole release. We received a lot of feedback from this change: some said that it was a bad decision, as it made the installation process more complicated; others said it worked great for them for it fit their use case more closely. During the 1.0 beta cycle, the package dependency listing was hand written and buggy. That was the source of a lot of broken, incomplete installations reported [1]; later in the beta cycle, we switched to using a script that calculates dependencies based on assembly references. With that, our current set of packages is a lot less buggy now [2]. To further facilitate end-users, two meta packages were created: 'mono-complete' and 'mono-complete-devel'. Installing these packages requires installing every package we ship. Effectively, this mimics the old 'mono' and 'mono-devel' package. We made available 'mono-all' zip files on the download page, containing all the packages we ship for that particular release. On top of downloading packages from the download page, there are two additional ways of installing Mono: either through the 'mono' channel on Red Carpet, or with our YUM repository for Fedora users. Both mechanisms will resolve dependencies problems for you. Some questions: How do you install Mono right now? What do you do to upgrade? Is Mono too difficult to install for people new to Linux? For people with Linux experience? Do you think switching back to a two package setup is a good idea? A lot of Mono users are new to Linux, and it is evident that the installation procedure for Windows (Paco's excellent installer) and Mac OS X (the dmg image from Adam) is far simpler than the various mechanisms available on Linux. We like to make the installation experience on Linux as simple as the others as well. Thanks so much! Duncan. [1] e.g. mono-web-services requires mono-web-forms, but the dependency was not encoded in the RPM. [2] Frequently the mono-preview package gets installed in place of other packages, resulting in broken installations. This has been fixed in CVS and will be rolled out in the next release. ___ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list

When that is fixed, gtk-sharp-gapi packages will be made available. Note 3: Only core functionality is provided on SLES 8. Due to the old X implementation on SLES 8, the Cairo graphics library cannot be built. Without Cairo, libgdiplus is also unavailable, both of which are vital to our System.Drawing implementation (mono-drawing). Even though the 'mono-web-forms' package is provided, it will not properly install because of missing dependencies. If you would like to use mono-web-forms, you should override the dependencies manually. However, you'll be left with partial functionality of this package. It is for this same reason that xsp packages are not available at this moment. The preview packages for Windows Forms (wine and winelib), as well, are unavailable.

Shouldn't be any problems as far as I can tell :) (haven't tried it though). Actually, in this case, this is probably not going to work. The reason is because of the X server that comes with Red Hat 8.0 is XFree86 4.2, which does included an outdated version of the RENDER extension. Red Hat 9, and Mandrake 9.1 both ship with XFree86 4.3 with a current version of the RENDER extension. For these distributions, we have RPMS on my site on primates and also on Red Carpet. The problem with building Cairo on the older distributions is this: since a dated version of RENDER is bundled in the X server, it is not possible to ship the current version of RENDER in a separate package because that will conflict with files already provided by the XFree86-devel package. To fix this, I'll probably have to build render and install it on top of the files provided by XFree86-devel, specifically the header file. With that, I can then build the upper layers of the Cairo stack and ship packages for those components. The updated header file for RENDER will still not be shipped with these older distributions, but the resulting shared libraries should work. I have absolutely *no* idea what so ever for why Duncan hasn't released the source rpms. Several people have asked me where to find some of the srpms but I have no idea. I don't mind posting source RPMs, however, I find it frequently to be a support hassle. A lot of people assume that it is fine to rebuild a source RPM regardless of the targeted distribution. When that happens, the package dependencies gets completely jammed up and things get rapidly very messy from then on (i.e. 'just' fixing it with --force in RPM). The dependencies for GNOME libraries are a good example of what I mean, since the package names used in Red Hat, Mandrake and SuSE are all different. [ This is for everyone, and not just Richard ] If you want the source RPM for something, please contact me and I can send it to you. However, I fear that if I release source RPMs out to the public, I'll get lots of support mail for no good reason. Besides, we ship the prebuilt binary RPMs for our supported distributions anyway. If you want to build it yourself, it's always possible to build from tarballs/CVS. I haven't had the time to work on building Cairo on 'legacy' distributions such as Red Hat 8 or SuSE 8.2; it is something that I really wanted to do this week.

Re: [Mono-docs-list] Predefined docs patch
Hello Martin! On Mon, 2003-10-13 at 09:32, Martin Willemoes Hansen wrote: I was copying and pasting a lot when describing finalizers and the 3 internal constructors. First off, I'd like to say thank you for writing this patch. The patch looks fine, but I'd rather keep the updater general for now, because the plan is to use it for generating non-Gtk# docs as well (i.e. augment the existing ECMA corlib docs and generating docs for other platform libraries). You're very right that it is extremely tedious to cut and paste a lot of the same stuff, but it is also very easy to write one-off programs to do the cut-n-pasting for you. In fact, every time I had to do something like that (mass-documenting the internal IntPtr constructor, or the Finalize method, etc), I wrote a little program to do it for me. It really is not that painful. This patch will do the hard work in the updater.exe stage. I feel that we should not be doing this work in updater.exe; we should have a fixer script for doing this work instead. I posted something for fixing the signature of Finalize in bug #47016 last night and maybe we should generalize the script by having it take an XPath expression and a string and then do something like this: XmlNodeList results = document.SelectNodes (input_expression); foreach (XmlNode node in results) node.InnerText = input_string; I think such this fixer should fulfill most use cases, without making updater specific to Gtk# docs. What do you think? Do you understand why I'm reluctant to commit this patch? Do you think writing such a fixer program will be sufficient to handle the problems (the tediousness) you're seeing? thanks, Duncan. ___ Mono-docs-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-docs-list
[Mono-list] New packaged goodies (Cairo and ICU)
Hello, With new package dependencies were introduced to CVS in the past few days, here are some packages I built to calm everyone down: You can find them in: http://primates.ximian.com/~duncan/release. They'll be migrated to http://go-mono.com once I have time to scp them over and update the download page. = Details = RedHat 9: * Cairo packages: slim, libpixregion, libic, render, xrender and cairo * ICU 2.6.1 packages: icu, icu-locales, libicu, libicu-devel Mandrake 9.1: * Cairo packages * ICU packages * Gtk# 0.11 packages: gtk-sharp, gtk-sharp-gapi RedHat 8: * ICU packages. On Wednesday, I'll try to get Cairo and Gtk# packages for RedHat 8. I will also push Gtk# packages for RedHat 9 to Red Carpet. For SuSE 8.2 users, you can get an older version of ICU from SuSE directly. As for Cairo and Gtk# 0.11 packages, I'll try to build and push them after I can get them working on RedHat 8. P.S. I'll be removing the packages in ~/duncan/cairo shortly. From now on, they'll all be in ~duncan/release.
